Rack Side Air Distribution Unit 7
Installing the mounting rails
The Rack Side Air Distribution Unit mounts to the rack in a 2U-space with the option of allowing the
user to easily pull the unit out on the mouting rails, or to lock it in place with the additional screws
provided.
1. Locate a 2U-space where the Rack Side Air
Distribution Unit will be installed. The mounting
rails will be installed in the upper U of the 2U-space.
The bottom U of the 2U-space will be used to lock
the Rack Side Air Distribution Unit to the enclosure
(optional).
2. Using the caged nut tool (provided), install the
caged nuts in the corresponding mounting holes on the
interior of each vertical rail.
a. Use the upper U-space holes in the front and the back
of the rack for the mounting rails.
b. Use the lower U-space holes in the front only to lock
the Rack Side Air Distribution Unit to the enclosure
(optional). See “Lock the unit to the enclosure” on
page 11.
